“The tour was great! Chile brought a good mix of being an expert of Oslo’s history with her personal knowledge of living their and her personality. She was friendly and professional- even having to gently tell someone they were in the wrong place when they tried to join us halfway through. She had loads of great recommendations and made me super excited to take on Oslo after!”

“This was a very fun day filled with some history and traditional foods of Norway. Seafood, Vaffles, hot dogs, meats and cheeses, all with interesting stories. Charles was our tour guide. He is a transplant from Argentina so we had lively conversations about his decision to move to Norway. He did a wonderful job of giving us all the details of our tour. We walked for a few hours, enjoying the scenery of Oslo. I never thought I would eat reindeer, moose and whale salami! We also met very nice new friends. This is a definite DO when traveling to other countries.”

Review of Oslo’s 2-hour guided walking tour, covering royal landmarks, Akershus Fortress, the waterfront, and practical tips for booking.

“We booked an English walking tour via Viator and received confirmation with meeting details from the Vox City the day before. On the tour day, no guide showed up at the meeting point. After contacting the Vox City Tour, we were told the meeting point was actually elsewhere. We rushed there—still no guide. When we called again, the staff was rude and said no English tour was operating that day, and we should contact Viator for a refund. Our refund request was later denied without any explanation. Extremely unprofessional, and disappointing—avoid this tour.”
